Virtual Reality is not about a single person playing with a VR headset. It has many other uses including VR meetings, training modules, multi-player games, VR tours, etc. Using VR for meetings saves a lot of time and money.

Most technology experts predict that VR is still in its infancy and there is much more to be explored. This happened to be quite true, if you analyze the VR journey from the 1980s until now.
3: VR Headsets Cause Nausea
Initially, using some VR headsets used to make people sick not anymore. It is a fact that VR latency can cause nausea. Latency is the time taken for the movement of your head in the real world being replicated in the virtual world.
With the powerful headsets available today like the HTC Vive and Oculus, that is no longer a concern.
4: VR Makes You Lazy
